Maker's Retreat for Women 3-Night All-Inclusive Experience at The Benninghofen House Hamilton, Ohio March 20 - March 23, 2025
Join us for a unique and inspiring 3-night, all-inclusive Maker's Retreat at the beautiful Benninghofen House in Hamilton, Ohio. This retreat is designed specifically for women who want to tap into their creativity while bonding with a supportive tribe of like-minded ladies.
We’re thrilled to be teaming up with the Junk Journaling Queens at Front Room on 7th, who will guide us on our creative journey. Under their expert leadership, you’ll learn how to create your very own stunning leather junk journal using the timeless long stitch binding technique. Junk journaling is a creative process that turns found and recycled items, such as old papers, tickets, stamps, buttons, fabrics, and memorabilia, into an artistic collection of memories, thoughts, and inspiration. It's a wonderful way to tell your story, preserving moments, ideas, and dreams in a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Throughout the weekend, you’ll learn a variety of techniques to enhance your junk journaling practice, from crafting pages to embellishing with personal touches. All supplies will be provided, so you can focus on the creative process without worrying about a thing.
In addition to crafting, you’ll enjoy delicious meals, relaxation, and quality bonding time with the group. You’ll have free time each day to explore the delightful surroundings of the Benninghofen House and the charming city of Hamilton, or indulge in whatever makes your heart happy. Whether you want to take a walk or a nap, work on a project, soak in the hot tub, relax with a book, or just connect with new friends, the retreat offers a peaceful environment for rejuvenation.
Come create, relax, and connect at this unforgettable retreat where you’ll leave with a beautiful, personalized journal and a heart full of inspiration.
